Dodgers: The Dodgers’ Bats Literally had a Blast in June
After a slow start, the Dodger’s power game finally came to life in June. The Homer-Happy Dodgers blasted 55 HRs for the month, nearly matching the 56 homers they hit for all of March, April and May combined. As of the end of June, the Dodgers led the National League with 111 round-trippers.
The Dodgers set a team record with 221 HRs in 2017, averaging 1.36 dingers per game. Unfortunately, that power didn’t seem to follow them into 2018. Through the end of May, Dodger hitters were only averaging 1 HR/Game. A far cry from last season’s record-setting pace. Many Dodger faithful were starting to wonder (and worry!) what happened to the power?
